What's missing here?
I just saw this. What's this hole all about? Any ideas?

Re: What's missing here?
I thought that was the CBS brake fluid reservoir window thingy - very tricky to tell what level the fluid is really at as often it is full so no level mark visible when scooter upright).

Re: What's missing here?
Is there a cover missing or is it like this on all the pcxs. Wasn't sure if it's popped off after my accident. Thanks

Re: What's missing here?
I have a new PCX and noticed the same opening this weekend while looking for the dreaded rattle. Didn't find the rattle, but found the opening, so I assume this is how it was made.

That's good to hear. I was convinced something was missing. Good luck with the rattle.gmlawrence wrote:I have a new PCX and noticed the same opening this weekend while looking for the dreaded rattle. Didn't find the rattle, but found the opening, so I assume this is how it was made.

Re: What's missing here?
That's normal on all PCXes. As iceman said, that is where you can check the level for the brake fluid for the rear / combined brake.

Re: What's missing here?
I have cut a small piece of 3M white carbon fiber vinyl to cover it… easily removed for inspection.....It looks weird just being open , even though I know it's an indicator window.

Re: What's missing here?
You should leave it open, out of sight = out of mind.
Its placed where it is for a reason, you see it every time you use the scooter.
If the level drops you'll notice it immediately.
Unless its covered up.
